European shares were steady on Thursday as gains in industrials and materials were offset by declines in heavyweight sectors such as energy and healthcare.
The pan-European STOXX 600 index opens held its ground at 552.47 points. The benchmark index logged its worst day so far in 2025 in the previous session.
The industrial goods and services sector opens rose 0.6%, led by a 5.4% jump in Schneider Electric opens after the electrical equipment maker forecast a bigger-than-expected rise in its 2025 profit margin.
